Input the combination of speakers in your system and their
corresponding sizes (SMALL for regular speakers, LARGE for full-size,
full-range) to automatically set the composition of the signals output
from the speakers and the frequency response.
This selects the subwoofer speaker for playing deep bass signals.
This parameter is for optimizing the timing with which the audio
signals are produced from the speakers and subwoofer according to
the listening position.
This adjusts the volume of the signals output from the speakers and
subwoofer for the different channels in order to obtain optimum
effects.
This assigns the digital input jacks for the different input
sources.
This sets whether or not to display the on-screen display that appears
on the monitor screen when the controls on the remote control unit or
main unit are operated (from MONITOR outputs only).
FM stations are received automatically and stored in the memory.

NOTES:
• The on-screen display signals are output with priority to the S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack during playback of a video component. For example,
if the TV monitor is connected to both the AVR-2801/981’s S-Video and video monitor output jacks and signals are input to the AVR-2801/981
from a video source (VDP, etc.) connected to both the S-Video and video input jacks, the on-screen display signals are output with priority to
the S-Video monitor output. If you wish to output the signals to the video monitor output jack, do not connect a cord to the S-VIDEO
MONITOR OUT jack. (For details, see page 22.)
• The AVR-2801/981’s on-screen display function is designed for use with high resolution monitor TVs, so it may be difficult to read small
characters on TVs with small screens or low resolutions.
• The setup menu is not displayed when “HEADPHONE ONLY” is selected.
